very nice, been thinking about doing this for a while, might have to get one of these soon. What kind of trailer is that you have in the picture btw?

Also, I usually leave the spare in the car when I track it, mostly so it doesnt make the weight distribution more off than it is, but with this addition of 11 pounds I figure could remove the tire and have effectively relocated some weight to a lower position. And if you REALLY think about it (which I have a habit of doing), the weight is further behind the rear axle than the spare, which due to the lever arm effect would actually tend to lift the front of the car a bit and redress the weight distribution further. Not that this would be at all noticeable lol. But you can list it in the product description, better weight balance! or even "Drastically enhances vehicle handling and dynamics through improved weight distribution. Put more power to the ground, order today!"

Eh, its the last 20 minutes at work...
